"The world says truth is hate. But in reality, the absence of truth is the cruelest hate of all. Paul reminds us that love rejoices in truth (1 Corinthians 13:6), and that we must “speak the truth in love” (Ephesians 4:15). To stay silent while people remain in sin is not love — it’s indifference. Even this week, a Reuters report on a law professor suspended over posts about Kirk shows how fiercely culture now polices speech around controversial public figures. That should wake us up. If even Scripture is branded as hate, then we must be prepared to face the same hostility. Standing firm in a world turned upside down. The culture may label us “haters,” but the truth is this: standing on God’s Word is the most loving thing we can do. Charlie Kirk lived this out boldly. And Franklin Graham’s defense of him reminds us that true Christianity is not about silencing sin or watering down truth. It’s about proclaiming Christ with courage and compassion. Like Charlie, we are called to hold fast to biblical truth — no matter the cost."
